An Exciting Trip for Two (Sapphire & Katrina)

A trip may just be for entertainment for others, but this trip was going to be the gift of a lifetime. Christmas was the wonderful season of when they first met. They started out as friends and kept in touch over the years. When they reconnected one time she reached out and did something that was very unlike Katrina.

She kissed her, that one kiss led to the start of a relationship between the two. Katrina and Sapphire were a perfect fit, and Katrina enjoyed every moment. After hundreds of years, she had been alone and suffered through the trials and tribulations of the earth.

In the beginning, they had mentioned they wanted to wait for marriage for a while, but with the idea of seeing the roots of Italy from Sapphire while the roots from Katrina in Scotland she was wanting to propose in between. She had done her research and knew she wanted to ask this woman to be her wife.

Since the world allowed it now, she wasn't going to wait, she wanted everyone to know just how much they loved each other. She had given a beautiful sapphire envelope with gold peacocks, she cursived her name and then inside it held everything they would need for the trip.

Their flights, her freedom from both of their work and it would be the time they could get to know each other further. She wanted to then tell the woman of her marriage proposal idea. If it was a good idea or a bad idea she didn't know but she knew that it would be one exciting ride.

She looked around the house making sure everything was locked and turned off. She had gotten someone to pet sit the pups for her and she had texted her earlier to make sure someone did for Sapphire. This year 2021 was going to be the best for them, she hoped but also felt it.

She wore light makeup with a light blush and pale pink lipstick. She wore a black tank shirt and a pair of blue jeans. She had brought a coat for it was cold out but when she was moving about she got hot at times. Her hair was curled and neatly in a bun with loose curls wrapped around her head.

Grabbing her suitcase she made sure the black velvet box was inside and then quickly brought her car to Sapphire's house. She was excited for their flight to Scotland first, and on the later part of the trip a week in Scotland and a week in Italy, in Italy she found the perfect spot she would ask for her hand in marriage.

Knocking on the door lightly wearing the beige coat loosely on her shoulders as she was warm with excitement already.

The phoenix looked at her girlfriend and chuckled as she shook her head. "Love you are beautiful no matter what age you are." She said as she looked at her. She smiled as she held her hand, knowing she was teasing. Sapphire didnt care about what Katrina's age or how she acts, she loves her no matter what in everything she does. She smiled as she kissed her cheek back and smiled as she cuddled close to her alittle as she looked at her and smiled, Sapphire could see so much beauty in her girlfriend's face and wouldnt change anything about her.

Sapphire listened to her as she nodded. "I agree on that. " She said softly as she looked at her and smiled at her. "Some humans would think we will just be dangerous to them." She said softly to her as she looked at her. "Plus I know that you would help anyone if you wanted to." She said as she kissed her lips softly before smiling at her and held her hand as she was laying her head on her shoulder. Sapphire didnt talk much about her species as she was the only one in the guard that she knew of besides knowing about the species that was similar to hers but had to deal with ice instead of fire.

The phoenix chuckled as she noticed Katrina getting her handkerchief and handing it to her. "Thank you." She said softly as she cleaned her eyes alittle. "They are. It still sad that Jack couldn't live and be with Rose. At least they are now in a better place together." She said as she smiled before looking at Katrina as she spoke. "Hmm I think it was alittle of both." She teased as she giggled. "No it was because it was kind of romantic in a sad kind of way. I am just happy that Kate Winslet's character Rose is with the person she loves at the end even though they are both passed." She said as she looked at her.

Katrina looked at her and couldn't help leaning her head in closer.
She liked the way the woman made her feel, the way she seemed to understand that her age was just a number, even though she acted older then she looked. Giving her a smile she took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

When they spoke quietly about witchcraft on the ship she nodded slightly on that. "I was never on that ship, otherwise I would have tried to help, though I lack the strength or gifts that others have." She looked at her girlfriend before feeling the softness of her lips on hers. When the kiss broke she ran her fingertips across her lips as if to memorize how it felt.

When she took the handkerchief and mentioned liking the Kate Winslet scene she found herself laughing a bit louder, not liking to draw attention to them she tried to silence herself but it was difficult. "I'm sorry I just find it a lot of fun and I now understand. But yes, they are together just in the afterlife, that's all." She knew that it may be a sensitive stand, death. Katrina had people pass away in her life but she never had the family that Sapphire had. Kissing her cheek gently she smiled.

"I'm here, the person you love is right here." She whispered softly, holding her close as best she could.

Sapphire smiled as she looked at her while she felt her hand get a squeeze. The phoenix couldn't help but look at Katina with so much love in her eyes as she felt her move her head closer to hers on her shoulder. She smiled as she looked at her girlfriend and thought about a few things as she could hear people talk and also hear the music from the credits on their movie. Sapphire looked at her as Katrina spoke about things that they were talking about earlier. Knowing that their conversation about witchcraft was hush hush between them so humans wouldn't get weirded out or become panicked. Sapphire knew that most humans would find both of Katrina's and her own species to be dangerous and strange.

"If I was alive during that time, and being on the ship, I would of helped as well. I feel that all of them couldn't of been living happy lives and passed down the story for ages to hear. " She said as she looked at her and smiled after their soft kiss. A giggle escaped her lips as she watched Katrina touch her lips after the kiss. Sapphire smiled as she looked at her girlfriend with love and affection towards her. Once Sapphire got the tears wiped away after the movie, Sapphire heard Katrina laugh at her comment which made her laugh as well. "Its fine, I can understand it." She said as she smiled and looked at her. Feeling Katrina kiss her cheek gently made her smile more as she looked at her. "And I wouldn't change anything about right now." She whispered back as she cuddled close to her.

Katrina looked at her woman, her beautiful woman that she couldn't believe was with her.
Sapphire was special as she stated that if she was alive then she would be helping as well. She was the sweetest and seeing her there caused her to smile further as she listened to her.

"I wouldn't change anything either." She whispered to her as she looked at the woman. "Do you think the flight is almost over? I am so excited to start the trip with you. It seems like we have been waiting forever. Plus I can't remember the last time I planned to take so much time off. I never had a reason, before you." She said as she ran her hand along her cheek.

"I love you so much, Sapphire. I'm one very lucky woman."

The phoenix smiled as she looked at her girlfriend, her mind went to how it began with her. From caroling together as friends to now lovers on a special trip, Sapphire couldn't be happier with being with Katrina. They have know each other for a while and were together for a while as well. Sapphire wouldn't change a thing about her life now, well except if the two were to get married but anyways, she would still want to be with Katrina no matter what. The phoenix just looked at her girlfriend as they talked for a moment before Sapphire listened to Katrina speak.

"I don't think its over." She said as she giggled. Sapphire listened to her and smiled as she felt Katrina caress her cheek. Sapphire smiled and touched her hand as she looked at Katrina. Listening to her talk about how she didn't really have a reason to take so much time off until Sapphire. Sapphire smiled as Katrina told her that she loved her. The phoenix smiled and leaned in close to kiss her girlfriend on the lips. "I love you so much too. I think I am the very lucky woman here." She teased as she smiled and looked at her girlfriend with loving eyes.

Katrina glanced over at her. "Darn it, can't be fast enough." She held onto her woman softly, for some reason they both were on a factor of it hitting them both. They were together and had each other. When the world started to knock them down they could lean on each other. When she mentioned that she was lucky she giggled slightly.

Every kiss melted her heart and when theirs ended she gave her hand a small squeeze.

"Watch another movie or play twenty questions? I saved some 'road trip' things to my phone?" She asked the young woman as she smiled at her softly. "Or snacks, I did bring some in my purse. Don't want anyone going hungry."

Sapphire giggled and smiled as she looked at her. As the two looked at each other as Sapphire couldn't help but blush as she looked lovingly into Katrina's eyes. When the world changed, they adjusted and were happy to just be together no matter the changes to the world or to their relationship. Hearing her giggle, made Sapphire's heart to flutter against her chest as she smiled and leaned against her softly as she held her hand, feeling the small squeeze, which Sapphire returned back as she looked into her lover's eyes as she spoke.

"Hmm I'm fine with any of those." She said as she giggled and smiled. "I think the plane provides some snacks but what kind do you have?" She asked as she smiled and looked at her as she smiled. "Ok lets snack on some food while playing twenty questions?" She asked as she looked at her and smiled as she looked at her in the eyes.

She could only smile at this woman.
She thought maybe she acted weird at times. She was overly giddy about everything the woman she loved said. Grabbing her bag she opened it and pulled out a paper bag labelled chocolates, another paper bag with everything peppermint/mint flavoured then a bag of caramel candies, another fruit flavoured, then lastly a bag with salty treats.

"Grab what you like. I also have a bag full of cookies. I'm a snack person. Especially when waiting for things - like babies; you learn that you get hungry from waiting. So I never go anywhere without fully stocked snacks. Everyone loves them."

Moving on she pulled her phone out and scrolled to the screenshots she saved. "Okay, we will go off with a strange question first, if you have any: How did you get your worst scar?"

Sapphire looked at her girlfriend as she then giggled alittle as she noticed Katrina grabbing paper bags with snacks. "Wow, Did you bring enough snacks?" She teased as she smiled as she looked at the bags as she grabbed some chocolate from the labeled bag. She listened to Katrina as she spoke about the snacks. "Well its good to be prepared. And with you delivering babies, I cant imagine you being able to grab a meal before heading to the hospital to help deliver a baby." She said as she looked at her and took a bite of the chocolate. She smiled as she ate some more chocolate before handing the bag back and grabbing the salty treats to get some of those.

The Phoenix looked at her as she let out a chuckle at her question, "Hmm well since the scars from my car accident before I knew I was a phoenix is still there, I would have to say car accident." She said as she looked at her and smiled. As Sapphire started to think of a question for her, "Hmm well lets see, Favorite place to relax? " She asked as she looked at her and smiled alittle. Sapphire ate some more snacks as she waited for her to answer.

Katrina looked at their girlfriend and laughed. "I always make sure to go and get a sub before I meet her, that way I can eat it cold if I am starving somewhere in the mix." She smiled at her as she grabbed some chocolate to eat and salty things like popcorn or pretzels. She always was packing things for food since she could be labelled as a foodie.

"Thats right, I'm sorry I brought it up. I don't want to trigger things and make it uncomfortable." She said softly, knowing that the accident was a rough time in Sapphire's life. Reaching out she placed her hand on her knee giving it a small squeeze. "Favourite place to relax, I don't know. I don't do much relaxing. I love when we spend time together. Not to sound cheesy or anything but you make me feel safe and I feel like I can take a deep breath and just relax." She paused and took a bit of a gummy worm.

"But if you want something less cheesy. Before well long time ago in Scotland, there was this small mountain and at night I would sneak out and go up there. Look at the stars and just try with all my might to remember who I was. Even though I couldn't I relaxed when I felt nervous or such."

Looking at her she could only smile. "Okay, Say you’re independently wealthy and don’t have to work, what would you do with your time?"

Sapphire listened to her as she smiled softly as she looked at her girlfriend, eating some snacks as they play twenty questions. Feeling her squeeze her knee when Sapphire mentioned the accident, made Sapphire smiled and look at her before she heard her answer her question. "Aww Love." She said as she heard her answer. She smiled and giggled. "Well I'm glad I can get you to relax." She teased as she smiled and took a bite of a chocolate pretzel. The phoenix had started to think of more questions as she listened to Katrina talk about her she would relax.

"Thats sounds amazing." she said as she looked at her when she talked about a spot in Scotland. "I can see that being relaxing and also a romantic spot too." She said teasing her alittle. Sapphire smiled as she giggled and looked at her. Sapphire smiled as she looked at her and listened to her question. "Hmm what would I do my time if I was very wealthy and didn't have to work?" She asked as she tapped her chin and sighed. "I cant see myself not working. But if I had to say I would volunteer my time helping wild horses get adopted and also volunteering at a animal shelter to help animals get adopted as well." She said as she looked at her and smiled.

"Hmm If you could write a note to your younger self, What would you say in only three words?" She asked as she looked at her. "And it doesn't have to be when you were a child if you don't want it to be." Sapphire said as she looked at her and smiled. She could even thing about her answer about this question as she would say Go Choiring. The reason for that answer is that is how she met Katrina and wouldn't change it.

Katrina couldn't help but smile, this woman had her giggly and radiating happiness.
"Well ever since that moment I landed, I never really calmed down, but after everything happened, I pushed myself into working as much as I could with my time. Seem as normal as possible. With you, I've finally relaxed a bit."

She listened as the woman spoke about her volunteering at the animal shelter and that helping animals get adopted. When she leaned close she held her hand before taking a cookie from the bag.

"Go to Evermore." She said quickly before looking at her. "I never was a child, remember? I fell from the sky looking this way. But regardless, the reason I would say go to evermore because at one point I didn't think I wanted to come here. Who would? Was my reaction and I really believe this was the best thing that ever happened. Cause I met you."

"Okay, if you were an ice cream flavor, which would you be and why?"
